DOLE_initiated voluntary retake examination of Tests III & V of the June 2006 Nursing LIcensure Examination

Pursuant to Executive Order No. 609 Series of 2007, the Department of Labor and Employment, in coordination with the Board of Nursing of the Professional Regulation Commission, is pleased to release the OFFICIAL RESULTS of the June 11, 2007 DOLE-initiated voluntary retake examination of Tests III and V of the June 2006 Nursing Licensure Examination (NLE). The retake examination was initiated by the DOLE to qualify our licensed nurses pursuant to the June 2006 NLE to the grant of US VisaScreen Certificate.

A total of 13,338 nurses licensed pursuant to the June 2006 NLE took the voluntary retake examination and 9,198 or 68.96% passed. The rest (4,140) failed to meet the passing grade of at least 75% in both Tests III and V. Results of the voluntary retake examination, however, will not affect their status as licensed nurses. Those who failed will simply not qualify for US VisaScreen Certificate.

The Office of the DOLE Secretary (7th Floor, DOLE Building, Muralla corner General Luna Streets, Intramuros, Manila) shall start issuing Certificates to successful examinees starting on September 3, 2007, from 9am – 12n and 1:30pm – 4:30pm, upon presentation of the examinee’s PRC License. The examinees are advised to strictly follow the schedules below for the release of individual Certificates.

Those residing outside of Metro Manila who wish to claim their Certificates via the DOLE Regional Offices are advised to register with the Regional Office nearest their place of residence/work. The DOLE Central Office shall transmit (in batches) the Certificates within 3 days from receipt of notice from the Regional Office concerned.

In either instance, all proxy claimants / representatives are required to present an authorization letter and a photocopy of the examinee’s PRC License (original license must be presented).
